Setup Guide

Follow the ars-UI setup guide: manual installation, /ars menu, WeakAuras, addon dependencies, chat, Edit Mode, macros and keybinds.

Setup / Config

Install ars-UI manually, then configure everything from /ars.

After installing the files, log into the game and type /ars. This opens the ars-UI menu used for chat configuration, Edit Mode setup, addon settings, keybinds, macros, action bar setup, modules and reload actions.

Important update warning

Do not update ars-UI with an addon manager. Future updates should be installed manually. Do not replace ars-BossLootTracker_Backup or ars-BossProgressTracker_Backup after the first installation, otherwise you may overwrite your saved backup data.

1

Install addon folders

Place ars-monitor, ars-BossLootTracker, ars-BossLootTracker_Backup, ars-BossProgressTracker, ars-BossProgressTracker_Backup, ars-UI and ars-UI-addons_setting inside World of Warcraft/classic/Interface/AddOns.

2

Install Fonts

Place the Fonts folder inside World of Warcraft/classic/. Replace only if you want the ars-UI font configuration.

3

Install chat bubble and tooltip files

Place the chat bubble and tooltip folders inside World of Warcraft/classic/Interface following the intended visible or invisible bubble setup.

4

Enable required addons

Make sure every required addon below is installed and enabled in-game. Enable “Load out of date AddOns” if necessary.

5

Open the ars-UI menu

Once in-game, type /ars. This is the main control menu for applying the UI setup and opening ars-UI modules.

6

Apply chat and Edit Mode setup

Use the /ars menu to apply chat configuration and the ars-UI Edit Mode layout, then reload the interface with /reload.

7

Apply addon, keybind, macro and action bar setup

From /ars, use the supported setup buttons for BigWigs, Skada, MRT, Plater, keybinds, macros and SkillActionBar. These options can overwrite existing configuration, so use them carefully.

8

Import WeakAuras

Open WeakAuras with /wa, import the required Wago packs listed below, then reload and verify the final 1920x1080 layout.
